Rodney Bourke reports (May 2008):

Filmmaking in 9.5mm, 16mm, 8mm, Super 8, Single 8 and Double Super 8

Why Film?

Although it was back in the 1930’s that Kodachrome was developed, it wasn’t until the 80’s that Super 8 Kodachrome was scanned and calculated as having at least 1,200 lines resolution and 16mm Kodachrome well over 3600 lines. But since Kodachrome has been discontinued. Living in the Millenium, New developments have happened in Film Technology, with Fuji Velvia, Kodak’s Black & White and Negative Film Stocks being released with resolution, definition and colours far exceeding Kodachrome.

For the opposite effect you can use high speed film, designed mainly for night cinematography, giving that grainy look with a warm texture, and artistic feeling that pixels cannot imulate.

Some say Digital DVD with 500 lines resolution has replaced Film! But I say it is only a replacement for Analogue VHS & SVHS. For Archiving always keep your original Master on FILM, by making a transfer to this lower medium, you have the best of both worlds. One does not replace the other, but can compliment the other.

As Video and Computers are always updating themselves, and becoming Redundant, Out of date, and Worthless. Real Filmmakers using Real Film don’t have this problem , what you learn Today is still applicable Tomorrow, as film has the highest resolution, , the equipment still retains its value and Usefulness. Thus allowing the filmmaker the Convenience to make a copy to a lesser format like DVD.

High Resolution Film (Sun)

R25N Fuji Single 8, 40 ASA Kodachrome, 50ASA Fuji Velvia, Pro 8 /45 50D Neg

Medium Resolution Film (Cloud)

Kodak 64T, 100ASA Kodak Plus-X B&W, 100ASA Fuji Velvia, Pro 8 /12 100T Neg

Low Resolution Film (Night)

RT200N Fuji Single 8, 200ASA Kodak Tri-X B&W, 200 & 500T Kodak Vision Neg, Pro 8 200T to 500T Neg

FILM IS NOT REDUNDANT, WITH THE HIGHEST RESOLUTION

New 16mm film stock, will look just as good weather it is in a 16mm Movie Camera made in 1920’s or year 2000. Same with Still FILM

New 35mm Still Film Stock, in an old 35mm Still Camera from 1930’s will look as good as a year 2000 model.

Not so with Digital every year there being outdated in resolution, with new Cameras. Film users don’t have this problem.

SINGLE 8 News

If you still have Out of date Fuji Single 8 Film, with mailing bag and receipt docket, then finish of the film, send it in, as Fuji will still honor processing even thou it's out of date.

Rodney notes: If any members from Melb/Syd want to send me a video on VHS or DVD, I would be happy to screen them (also any original 8/16mm films must be registered by Australia Post, to avoid being lost).

The Sydney branch of the Moving Image Coalition is active. Click for more details. ........if any one wishes to send work to them sydneymovingimagecoalition@hotmail.com.

LUX non-profit organisation based in UK aims to, among other things, distribute moving artists' works internationally. Via this initiative the Moving Image Coalition screened works from France and Austria at our screening on June 10, 2003. This will be a reciprocal venture, where we hope films from Melbourne MIC members will screen internationally as part of LUX screenings.

The Association of Moving Image Archivists (AMIA) is a non-profit professional association established to advance the field of moving image archiving by fostering cooperation among individuals and organizations concerned with the acquisition, preservation, and, importantly for MIC members, exhibition and use of moving image materials.
